In the wake of the tragedy in Orlando this weekend, a heartwarming moment surfaced on Tuesday showing how people are supporting those grieving. JetBlue flight attendant Kelly Davis Karas took to Facebook to share the story of how she and her colleague, Melinda Winstead, helped comfort a grandmother traveling alone to Orlando to grieve the loss of her grandson, 20-year-old Luis Omar Ocasio-Capo. He was one of the 49 innocent people killed in the mass shooting. When the grandmother boarded the flight, Karas writes on Facebook that she and Winstead knew they wanted to make the trip as easy as possible for her.

"Knowing she was making this hard journey alone, JetBlue employees made sure to be at her side every step of theway," Karas writes. "...Melinda and I gave her a blanket, a pillow, a box of tissues and water so she could be as comfortable as possible. She was understandably distraught, but met us with kindness and gentleness. And gratitude."

But Karas and Winstead wanted to do something extra to comfort the grieving grandmother. Karas had the idea to pass around a piece of paper to the other passengers, which they could sign to express their condolences. Winstead helped her start passing the paper from the back of the plane forward, and they let passengers know their plan during beverage service. They soon hit a snag, though.

"Halfway through, Melinda called me, 'Kel, I think you should start another paper from the front. Folks are writing PARAGRAPHS,'" Karas writes. "So I did. Then we started one in the middle. Lastly, running out of time on our hour and fifteen minute flight, we handed out pieces of paper to everyone still waiting."

By the time the flight was over, Karas and Winstead had collected pages of messages from the passengers, offering their love, support, and condolences to the grandmother. Some even made cash donations. When the flight landed in Orlando, Karas writes they held a moment of silence in Ocasio-Capo's memory. They gave the grandmother the messages, and, as each passenger deplaned, Karas says they stopped to offer their condolences in person, too. It was a moving moment for everyone—especially Karas.

"I am moved to tears yet again as I struggle to put our experience into words," Karas writes. "In spite of a few hateful, broken human beings in this world who can all too easily legally get their hands on mass assault weapons—people ARE kind. People DO care. And through our customers' humanity today, and through the generosity of this wonderful company I am so grateful to work for, I am hopeful that someday soon we can rally together to make the world a safer place for all."
